It’s only the first week of school and there are already test scores.

Results for the Maryland Comprehensive Assessment Program, known as MCAP, dropped this week for the 2024–25 school year. The annual assessment tests students in grades three through eight, as well as some high schoolers, in English, math, science and social studies.

Students are scored from 1 through 4 on the various assessments, with scores of 3 and 4 considered proficient.

Several Howard County schools stood out as top performers. Some even posted county-leading scores in both English and math, including Mount View Middle, West Friendship Elementary, Clarksville Middle and Worthington Elementary.

Check out which other county schools scored the highest proficiency ratings on the English and math exams:
